Photo 10-13-D #2 clearly shows the Left Arm above plane and the Left Hand and club shaft laying flat to the Inclined Plane. A slight cup in the wrist, consistent with the cup associated with vertical left wrist cocking given a 10-2-B Strong Single Action Grip. Flat is not literally flat but geometrically flat. Search function. Quote: You can't win tournaments if you bend the delivery line. I'm serious. You don't have a problem with bending the plane line. But do you know what you do that solves the problem? Yes, I do. I trace a straight line base line , Arc of Approach or cover the Angle of Approach. I also attach some lasers to both ends of a club and see whats going on. I can shift and have pretty straight lines no problem. It isnt that hard. Quote: So, for swingers that have swiveled to plane on the backstroke, you would also agree that if your Left Arm pointed inside the Plane Line (Left Arm Wedge) then you need to Bend your Left Wrist so that your Clubshaft will be on plane when you Cock and Uncock? Or is this bend just the plane of the left wrist cock? Try cocking a 10-2-B vertically with your left arm held straight in front of you. Cups right? It must. I admit there is some fog around the geometry of the plane of the left wrist cock and the on plane release motions for me. I do. You cant cock the left wrist vertically along the plane of the left arm flying wedge and be on plane when the left arm isnt on plane, I dont think. But I know from my own experience that you dont need to manipulate the left wrist to do so (which is per Homer a clubface manipulation as opposed to a shaft plane manipulation as you suggest). Nor do you need to zero out #3 and swing on a super steep, what you call a TSP but which looks more like a Left Shoulder Plane to have release motions on plane and straight line base line compliant. This I know from experience although I do get the geometric reason for your assertion. Is anyone listening to this or is it just you and me? What were we talking about again? After we knock this doozer off I have a few questions about the Angle Of Approach. Last edited by O.B.Left : 11-18-2009 at 01:52 AM.
